Psalms 32
1 Nkunga Davidi. Lusakumunu kuidi mutu wowo wulemvokolo nzimbalꞌandi; masumu mandi mafukulu.
[A Psalm] of David, Maschil. Blessed [is he whose] transgression [is] forgiven, [whose] sin [is] covered.
2 Lusakumunu kuidi mutu wowo Yave kankambu ntangila disumu diandi, ayi kambulu bukhita mu pheve andi.
Blessed [is] the man to whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit [there is] no guile.
3 Bu ndiba dio sui, mimvesi miama milebakana mu kunga ku ndiba nkunga mu lumbu kimvimba.
When I kept silence, my bones became old through my roaring all the day long.
4 Bila muini ayi builu koko kuaku ziku kuba va minu. Zingolo ziama zisukidi banga mu thangu yi muini wu ngolo.
For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drouth of summer. (Selah)
5 Buna ndizabikisa disumu diama, ndisia fuka mambimbi mama ko. Ndituba: “Ndiela lomba nlemvo mu zinzimbala ziama kuidi Yave.” Buna ngeyo wulemvukila mambimbi ma disumu diama.
I acknowledged my sin to thee, and my iniquity have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions to the LORD; and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. (Selah)
6 Buna diawu bika woso mutu wunkinzikanga mambu maku, wela kusambila mu thangu yoyi kalenda kubakula. Bukiedika mu thangu yi khuka nlangu yingolo milendi kunlalumuna ko.
For this shall every one that is godly pray to thee in a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they shall not come nigh to him.
7 Ngeyo buangu kiama kieti kutsueka; ngeyo weti kukheba mu ziphasi. Ngeyo wukunzungidilanga mu minkunga mi khudulu.
Thou [art] my hiding place; thou wilt preserve me from trouble; thou wilt compass me about with songs of deliverance. (Selah)
8 “Ndiela kumonisa ayi kulonga nzila yoyi fueti diatila, ndiela kuvana ndongi ayi thaluꞌama yela ba vadi ngeyo.
I will instruct thee, and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with my eye.
9 Kadi ba banga phunda voti banga bulu kioki bantedilanga ‘mule’; bibulu bikondolo diela, vayi biobi binkangungu nsinga ayi sengo mu munu bila nganu bilenda fikama va widi.”
Be ye not as the horse, [or] as the mule, [which] have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near to thee.
10 Mabienga mawombo madi mu diambu di mutu wumbimbi; vayi luzolo lu ngolo lu ma Yave lunzungidilanga mutu wowo wuntulanga diana diandi mu niandi.
Many sorrows [shall be] to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall encompass him.
11 Monanu khini ayi luyangadala mu Yave beno basonga. Luyimbila, beno boso luidi balulama mu mintima.
Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all [ye that are] upright in heart.
